aaga Democrat THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1945 APPALACHIAN PULPWOOD RECEIPTS STILL SLIPPING The 138,400 cords of pulpwood produced in the Appalachian region in May were 12 percent below the amount produced here in the same month of last year, according to fig ures Just published by the Forest Products Bureau. The production figures as reflect ed by, mill receipts, prompted WPB to state, "A precarious production situation prevails in this region." WPB reported that a serious situ ation also prevailed throughout the United States as proven by the fact that total receipts of 1,441,000 cords 4M not match up to the i,sis,ooo cords used during May. Although the overall receipts were IS percent JjfHcr th*n May of last year, inven tories dropped 10 percent. < Been? mills throughout the UlUted States have received 2 per cent less pulpwood through May this year than th?y did a year ago, WPB pointed out, "it again must be emphasized that victory in Eu rope Mas actually stepped up forest p^odbcta ; requirements for military Ufe- The combined strenuous ef forts erf -all pulpwood producers .to tofl fcaMT !

The most ever taken in on one day was 51,428 pounds, which was received on Friday, June 8, this year. Last year on June 8, the plant received only 30,584 pounds; therefore, the" Increase In production amounts to 20,744 pounds in a year. There are 973 patrons selling milk to this station this year, as com pared to 750 last year. Better cows, better pastures and better feeding, along with more patrons are the fac tors responsible for the big increase in production. State College Hints I To Farm Homemakers Br RUTH CURRANT <*. C. State College) - Greens are rich in vitamin A and good source* of vitamin C and iron. Nutritionists say the average Amer ican could well eat as much as 50 percent more green and yellow veg etables. Among the greens how plentiful are cabbaffrvfcoeeaU, spinach, escarole and lettuce. This fall we will have kale and collards. Since vitamins disappear as vege tables wilt and wait, use green vege tables fresh ? the fresher the more vitamin C and the greener, the more vitamin A. To enjoy leafy vegetables at their best, whisk, them from grocery or garden to table with only a brief pause in salad bowl or cooking kettle. When they must be held for a day or so, keep them cool, damp and lightly covered. Pile closely to prevent crushing. To keep greens bright, home eco nomists say to cook them quicks and just until tender; season simply with salt and meat drippings, or other fat; and serve at once. Cover to speed cooking. Don't dump any pot liquor down the drain because valuable vitamins and minerals are .dissolved in it. ? ? ? Here are some tips from the home economists for preparing liver, whatever the kind, so it will be ten der, tasty and nourishing. Before cooking, remove skin from pork or mature beef liver. The skin is less tough and so. much easier to get off. Tender young liver, lamb, calf or baby beef, usually does not need skinning. ? For calf or baby beef liver, scald ing (dipping in boiling water be fore cooking) is unnecessary. For lamb, pork or mature beef liver that is to be broiled or sauced, scalding generally improves flavor. Also, since it helps "set" the jukes, scald ing makes liver easier to i'rind or chon. > v - ? ' ? 'V* "Don't overcook" is the primary rale in liver cookery. 'High heat or long cooking easily toughens it Broil or saute yoqi)g liver only long enough to take away the red color, (ike all pork, pork liver should be .thoroughly cooked.
